Directions to the Midway Exposition Center: You can get to Highway 40 (40 runs north and south) from I-70). I believe these mileages are correct!!
From Kansas City, Missouri, take I-70 east: go 121 miles from Kansas/Misouri state line. At exit 121 go north on Highway 40 about 1/6th of a mile and turn left at the first intersection. Midway Budget Inn and a truck stop , Midway Travel Plaza, are on the west side, and to get to the arena you will drive between the two buildings. Follow that road up to the top of the hill. We will be in the barns on the farthest north side.
From St. Louis, Missouri take I-70 west: go many miles west on I-70 from the Illinois/Missouri state line. At exit 121 go north on Highway 40 about 1/6th of a mile and turn left at the first intersection. Midway Budget Inn and a truck stop, Midway Travel Plaza, are on the west side, and to get to the arena you will drive between the two buildings. Follow that road up to the top of the hill. We will be in the barns on the farthest north side.
